   Summary

   Nick Carraway and Jay Gatsby have been together for over a year now and in spite of all the time they get to spend together in Jay's impossibly large mansion, they're still not really out to the public. This is because the public is ravenous for just about any detail they can get concerning the life of one of the few sexually ambiguous billionaires in America. The government would be too if they didn't know any better.
   So Jay proposes he could take a day off. It's fall. It's a beautiful day. They've been cooped up for too long. Wouldn't it be nice to go to a pumpkin patch and pretend to be one of the thousands of couples that think fall is THEIR thing and NO ONE ELSE'S?
   Like teenagers after curfew, they sneak out of the house to spend a day together. Only Jay hopes it's the beginning of the rest of their lives.
